[Gen.Blather]

I’m going to suppose the DA’s theory is that once the victim got the gun he was no longer in danger. Therefore, he was attempting to murder the assailant who was at that point disarmed and not a danger. (This is why I have shooter’s insurance.)

If you’ve already been seriously injured, you don’t know if you are about to pass out. You don’t know if you are already, effectively dead. Killing your attacker is the only way to successfully disengage should you be on the edge of fainting. Trust me on this, you won’t know you’re on the edge until it is too late.

The way this works is the DA will plead the case down so that the victim does time. But he’ll have to admit he was attempting to commit murder to get the deal. The DA gets to hang his scalp on his political ladder. Being a DA is usually a steppingstone in politics. If the victim gets a public defender, he’s likely going to lose the case.

Thats complete bs you’re out of danger if you have the weapon. Total bs. Especially when you’re already injured.

The man then pulled a gun on Diarra, who attempted to grab the firearm. The gun was fired, leaving Diarra with a shot to the stomach and grazed in the ear by a bullet.

I’m going to suppose the DA’s theory is that once the victim got the gun he was no longer in danger.

So the victim was shot twice? How do we know the suspect was not attempting to disarm the victim before he shot the suspect?
